iDefense Security Advisory 12.17.07: Apple Mac OS X mount_smbfs Stack Based Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

I. BACKGROUND

The mount_smbfs utility is used to mount a remote SMB share locally. It
is installed set-uid root, so as to allow unprivileged users to mount
shares, and is present in a default installation on both the Server and
Desktop versions of Mac OS X. For more information visit the following

II. DESCRIPTION

Apple CoreGraphics (Preview) Memory Corruption Vulnerability - CVE-2010-1801

Apple Preview.app is the default application used in Apple MacOS systems in order to visualize PDF files and does not properly parse PDF files, which leads to memory corruption when opening a malformed file with an invalid size on JBIG2 structure at offset 0x2C1 as in PoC Repro1.pdf or offset 0x2C5 as in PoC Repro2.pdf (both values trigger the same vulnerability).

This problem was confirmed in the following versions of Apple Preview and MacOS, other versions may be also affected.

Apple Mac OS X 10.5.8 (Server as well)
Apple Mac OS X 10.6.2 (Server as well)
Apple Mac OS X 10.6.3 (Server as well)
Apple Mac OS X 10.6.4 (Server as well)

CVSS Scoring System

[CORE-2010-0825] Apple OS X ATSServer CFF CharStrings INDEX Sign Mismatch

The Apple Type Services is prone to memory corruption due a sign
mismatch vulnerability when handling the last offset value of the
CharStrings INDEX structure.

This vulnerability could be used by a remote attacker to execute
arbitrary code, by enticing the user of Mac OS X v10.5.x to view or
download a PDF document containing a embedded malicious CFF font
(Compact Font Format [1]).

This vulnerability is a variation of the vulnerability labeled as
CVE-2010-1797 (FreeType JailbreakMe iPhone exploit variation).

Recent developments in FireWire Attacks

nothing new, having been covered extensively by Maximilian Dornseif
(2004 and 2005) and more recently by Adam Boileau (2006 and 2008).
Unfortunately the tools released as part of these disclosures (pyfw,
pythonraw1394 and winlockpwn) have all started to succumb to bit rot. In
addition, there has been comparative lack of research on the
vulnerabilities of Mac OS X against FireWire attacks.

Therefore I would like to share my updated research in the field. This
includes a open source cross platform (GNU/Linux and Mac OS X) library,
libforensic1394, for performing memory forensics/attacks over FireWire
and a paper on the subject. (Although written from a forensics

[TEHTRI-Security] CVE-2010-1752: Update your MacOSX

Notice that if you already updated your iPhone with iOS4, our exploits
for this particular vulnerability would not work anymore.
( search for "CVE-2010-1752" here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4225 )

But, thanks to our proof of concepts (client-side attacks), it was not
only possible to abuse the iPhone devices, but also any current Mac OS X
( Mac OS X v10.5.8, Mac OS X Server v10.5.8, Mac OS X v10.6 through
v10.6.4, Mac OS X Server v10.6 through v10.6.4 ).

Hopefully, this week, Apple released many interesting security patches
for Mac OS X, and one of them will allow Mac end users to avoid those
